“This bag holds your bottle caps.”— Fallout in-game description
Bottle caps are the standard currency in Fallout.
Characteristics[]
The Nuka-Cola bottle caps are backed by The Hub's Water Merchants in New California, as one bottle cap represents a specific unit of water. The reasoning for their support is that the technology to manufacture bottle caps and paint the surface has been lost in the Great War, which would greatly limit any counterfeiting efforts. Secondly, there is a limited number of bottle caps, which would serve to preserve their value to some degree.[citation needed]
Bottle caps are also called Hubbucks, because they originated from the Hub.
Locations[]
Found everywhere throughout New California.
- 2034 bottle caps in Lorenzo Giovanni's locked safe in Hub Downtown. He and his guards will turn hostile trying to steal it.
- 2016 bottle caps in Killian Darkwater's safe.
- 13 bottle caps in the building near the Crash House.
- 150 bottle caps in Jacob's bookcase at Old Town.
- 15/10/12/11 bottle caps in footlockers on level two of Mariposa Military Base.
- 2082 bottle caps in a footlocker on level 2 of the Los Angeles Vault.
Notes[]
Even though the icon shows a number of caps in a bag, each is only actually a single bottle cap.
